14. EQUITY:

Dividends

On February 25, 2020, the Company’s board of directors declared the Company’s first quarter 2020 cash dividend in the amount of $0.95 per share of common stock, or an aggregate of approximately $52.2 million in cash, which was paid on April 15, 2020 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 31, 2020. Following the payment of the first quarter 2020 cash dividend, the Company suspended its regular quarterly dividend payments for the remainder of 2020. The Company’s board of directors will consider a future dividend as permitted by the Company’s credit agreement. The Amendment described in Note 7, “Debt,” to the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein, permits payment of dividends as necessary to maintain the Company’s REIT status and permits the Company to

pay a dividend of $0.01 per share each quarter. Any future dividend is subject to the Company’s board of director’s determination as to the amount of distributions and the timing thereof.

Noncontrolling Interest in the Operating Partnership

The Company consolidates the Operating Partnership, which is a majority-owned limited partnership that has a noncontrolling interest. The outstanding OP Units held by the noncontrolling limited partners are redeemable for cash, or if the Company so elects, in shares of the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to certain adjustments. At September 30, 2020, 0.4 million outstanding OP Units, or less than 1% of the outstanding OP Units, were held by the noncontrolling limited partners and are included as a component of equity in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company owns, directly or indirectly, the remaining 99.2% of the outstanding OP Units.
